Agreed - saw it quite a while ago, after someone suggested it (my wife works for Citizens Advice). Highly recommended, and bloody infuriating!!

went to see it at the pictures, really enjoyed it but as far as the audience went it was preaching to the converted as the place was full of middle aged lefties!!
When it finished the wife said they should have put a few more laughs in it! Crazy cow!
It wasn’t an easy watch that’s for sure. Interesting to see the responses on twitter, some trying to dismiss it as made up despite the fact it was based on real situations. In fact Loach has said they had to pull back on some content as, despite being factually accurate, it would have made it hard for people to believe.
I just watched this heartbreaking and frustrating in equal measure .
I’m not very political but what annoys me is in this films case there is a man who wants to get back and work in the system
Yet I’ve seen people who aren’t afraid to play the system and get all manner of payouts and benefits
There was a scene near the beginning where Daniel was talking to a guy in the job centre and tried to explain that he didn’t have clue about the internet
The guy said if he could log on he could find a number that could help him , just give him the number
